26、Hanfu, the traditional clothing of the Han , has made a comeback in recent years. The hanfu boom has seen an increase in available styles. To satisfy the diverse tastes of today’s youth, sellers are putting a fancy spin on this ancient costume.

Certain hanfu have a colorful reflective effect, as shiny decorative powders are stamped into the cloth. Modern material like chiffon (薄绸) is also widely used in hanfu, while paillettes (亮片) have been added to the surface of the dress.

Although the young fans of hanfu generally agree there’s no need to strictly follow the ancient rules, their opinions differ significantly. Qing Zhi, a university student, said hanfu is only a kind of clothing. She can match hanfu from different dynasties together, or with modern clothing, according to her own preferences. However, the form of each piece of hanfu she wears must be in accordance with history. Dafan, 24, sees it differently. She said clothing with fancy and exaggerated modern decorations can’t be seen as hanfu at all.

Meanwhile, fans disagree on how often one should wear the clothing. Qingzhi wears hanfu every day, while Wu Yue, another hanfu fan, said the clothing should not be worn daily.

In Wu’s view, hanfu should be properly combined with modern living. For example, special occasions like festivals and weddings are good occasions for wearing hanfu. “Only with functions can hanfu really have vitality.” she said.

Han Hua, a fellow from Chongyang Research Institute for Financial Studies at Renmin University of China, views the evolution of hanfu as natural. “I think people dressing in hanfu can have their own choices, whether sticking to the very traditional style, or whether having them modernized,” she said. “Both sides are OK, or there may even be a third side that introduces some modern elements, or some Western elements into hanfu. I’m totally fine with that. I only hope that there won’t be any disputes (争论), and there will be respect toward each party.”

【1】What do we know about hanfu from the first two paragraphs?

A．It’s delicate and comfortable.

B．Its production follows strict rules.

C．It appeals to people of different ages.

D．It keeps pace with the times.

【2】What is paragraph 3 mainly about?

A．The history of hanfu.

B．Rules of matching hanfu.

C．The debate over hanfu’s evolution

D．Different views on the popularity of hanfu.

【3】What does Wu Yue think of hanfu?

A．It doesn’t match modern living.

B．It is sensible for people to wear it daily.

C．It is a good choice for important occasions.

D．Modern decorations give it more vitality.

【4】What can we infer from Han Hua’s words?

A．Diverse forms of hanfu should harmoniously coexist.

B．It is hard to predict the evolution of hanfu.

C．Hanfu is a mean of passing on traditional Chinese culture.

D．Adding Western elements to hanfu can help spread it worldwide.

27、It was late one evening. I can’t remember what it was about, but my Dad and I had a very big argument when my mother was away. We both said things we didn’t mean, and in the end I said, “I’m leaving.” And he said, “Good. The sooner, the better.”

I threw a few things in the suitcase and closed the door violently behind me, not knowing where I was going. After walking aimlessly for 20 minutes, I stopped at a local supermarket. Then my phone rang. It was my mom calling. She said, “Hey, Mary. Where are you? Dad is worried about you.”

“How can he worry about me? I’ve been away for nearly half an hour, but he didn’t call.” I said with annoyance. My anger returned and I remembered all the hateful things he’d shouted to me. “Listen, Mom. You can tell Dad that I’m fine. I’ll call you tomorrow.” I said and hung up.

I walked around the supermarket, trying to get my thoughts together. By the time I paid for my purchases, it had been much later than I used to be out alone. When I left the supermarket, a large piece of white paper was in front of me. On the piece of white paper were these words: “Please come home! I miss you and I’m worried about you!”

Then a car pulled up beside me. Hanging out of the window was my Dad. Besides him, smiling gently, sat my mom. And that’s when I started laughing. I laughed so hard that I cried. Despite(尽管) my best effort to run away from home, my father finally managed to track me down. I couldn’t leave now, not with him sitting there with caring eyes.

28、   In recent decades，countries around the world have made great progress against malaria．However a new report from the World Health Organization（WHO）says that progress is at risk．

This WHO annual report looks at the global fight against the disease．It says that malaria cases are on the rise in several countries．

Many countries are moving toward eliminating malaria，among them Madagascar，Senegal and Zimbabwe．However，the WHO report warns that in others，progress has stalled．

Malaria cases increased by more than 20 percent from 2015 to 2016 in eight African countries﹣including Rwanda，Nigeria and the Democratic Republic of Congo．

At the same time，funding for malaria prevention and treatment has leveled off，reaching﹩2.7 billion in 2016．This amount is less than half of the 2020 target．

Professor David Conway is from the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine．He says money for fighting malaria has plateaued，meaning it has not increased in a long time．

Overall，Africa continues to suffer the most from malaria．In 2016，just over 400，000 people died from the disease．This is slightly less than in 2015.However，in Africa the malaria parasite does not yet appear to be developing drug resistance．

The same cannot be said for Southeast Asia．

Conway explains that there are renewed concerns that in Southeast Asia malaria will become drug﹣resistant in the future．

The WHO is calling for improving the coverage of existing methods of malaria prevention as well as an urgent investment in new tools﹣﹣namely a malaria vaccine．

Professor Conway said，"More research is needed to develop an effective malaria vaccine that could cover the populations that at the moment have high malaria rates and that perhaps don't use the available interventions even when they are being funded．"

Several malaria vaccines are under development．Starting in 2018，the WHO is planning a major trial of the RTSS vaccine in Kenya，Ghana and Malawi．

But this latest report from the WHO warns that the world is at a crossroads．Without better funding and more effective tools to fight malaria，the progress made in recent decades could be undone．

【1】Which of the following statements is not true？

A.A bit more than 400，000 people died from malaria in African countries．

B.More and more money has been put in malaria prevention and treatment．

C.Fewer and fewer people are suffering from malaria in the past decade．

D.Malaria cases decreased less than 20 percent in eight African countries in 2016．

【2】What does the word"they"in Paragraph 3 from the bottom mean？

A.malaria

B.the available interventions

C.the populations

D.malaria rates

【3】Why does the WHO show the worry about the battle of anti﹣malaria nowadays？

A.Progress of fighting malaria is greatly short of money and effective tools．

B.More and more people cannot get treatment for malaria in time．

C.No countries are likely to have got funding and effective tools from the WHO．

D.Some malaria sufferers in Africa have refused to get treatments from the WHO．

29、   Have you ever had one of those days when all you wanted to do was read an emotionally powerful story that would cause you to tears? Most of us tend to be attracted by stories that reach us on multiple levels, including sadness. There are plenty of books that make you cry (and sometimes laugh) and that you can really sink your teeth into. Here are four of them.

The Kite Runner

This realistic and moving description of life in Afghanistan accounts for the people who were badly affected by the Taliban. You’ll cry as you get to know the familial relationships and cruelty involved, but you’ll also get a sense of hope as you quickly read through this appealing novel.

The Book Thief

Let’s put it this way: Death itself is the narrator. The story is about a young girl named Liesel who has to live with foster parents during World War II. On the way to her new home, her brother dies, setting the gloomy tone for the story. There is hope, however, when Liesel discovers her love for reading and makes a relationship with a young Jewish man she helps hide from the Nazis.

The Fault in Our Stars

This is probably the most likely book on the list to make you cry, as it records the experiences of teens who are dying from cancer and living their last days in love. Their lifestyle is tragic and disturbing at the same time, as we watch their health worsen. The real tragedy is the love story between the main characters, who know that their romance is fruitless.

A Child Called “It”

Easily one of the saddest stories of abuse in recent decades, A Child Called It is based on the true story of Dave Pelzer, a boy from California who suffered at the hands of his cruel family. The tears will come from both sadness and the inspiration tied to Dave’s fight for survival in an environment where he is believed worthless.

【1】What do the four books have in common?

A. They are all about cruel wars.

B. They are all about suffering children.

C. They all probably make you cry.

D. They are all adapted from true stories.

【2】Which book is about a young victim whose family treated him cruelly ?

A. The Kite Runner. B. The Book Thief.

“I don’t regret accepting this challenge,”said Lee.“I am in shock, I admit that, but what’s done is done. I enjoyed this game and look forward to the next. I think I failed on the opening layout so if I do a better job on the opening aspect I think I will be able to increase my 【9】 of winning.”Lee was surprised both by how strong AlphaGo’s opening was, and by some 【10】moves.

THE DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE

In Congress, July 4, 1776

When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bonds which have connected them with another, and to assume among the Powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature’s god entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should d【1】 the causes which impel them to the separation.

We h【2】 these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created e【3】, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable R【4】, that among these are life, L【5】, and the pursuit of Happiness.

That to secure these rights, g 【6】 are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed.

That whenever any form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the P 【7】 to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new government, l【8】 its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such f【9】, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience has shown, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariable the same Object, evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their d 【10】, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.

41、阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。续写的词数应为150左右。

Polly, my stepmom, suggested the sweetest name to our pet dog: Mercy. We don't know why she gave the strange name. We soon learned it was just what this new dog would need.

My parents' bad tempered dog would jump out of bed and go-go-go all day long. So when they brought home a Christmas tree, they expected everything would be out of order. However, to their astonishment, Mercy didn't seem to take any care. She paid zero attention to the tree which suddenly grew in her living room. Nor did she react to the fancy presents under it, including a wrapped box of Milk-Bones.

Dad and Polly were quite careful; they'd never had a dog that didn't force them to move everything to higher ground as if they were expecting a flood. But Mercy seemed to take no notice. He didn't take any glance at it at all.

A few days before Christmas, Polly awoke early in the morning as usual. She passed the dusty living room and then stopped in surprise. Glancing back into the room, she saw that every last present was gone. Only the tree was still there.

Had they been robbed? Why hadn't Mercy barked? Where was she? Had the robbers taken her away? Polly noticed scrap of ribbon（丝带） on the floor, then bit of torn wrapping paper few feet away, some lights beyond that. The clues all made a mark leading toward the back door.

Polly put on the switch, bathing the backyard in light. The perpetrator's（肇事者）head lifted and froze. Alarm and guilt made her eyes wide. Oh, yes, it was Mercy.

She lay under her favorite tree in soft nest of shredde（碎片） wrapping paper, chewed-up boxes, and curling（缠绕） bits of ribbon. Presents, unpacked from their packages, were spread over everywhere. Beautifully wrapped boxes had gaping holes. Pieces of paper were mixed with the last remaining evidence of gifts. All the gift tags（标签） that could have been used as thank-you cards were destroyed.

Clearly Mercy's self-control had failed.

As for Thank-you cards, Mercy provided the answer.
